straightblast Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Where are the hands placed in the clinch? I just saw a clip where they were on the back of the head but I see a lot of people use the back of the neck. from the clip it said that you can can move the head down more easily, or are both ways used for certain techniques?

Dragn Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Generally they should be behind the back of the head. It gives you waay more leverage to pull the head down. Also focus on driving your elbows forward onto his collar bone area. "Today is a good day to die"Live each day as if it were your last Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbows_and_knees Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 the back of the neck is incorrect. you don't have proper head control and it's much easier to escape. it also prevents you from trapping their neck AND from shoving your elbows into their collarbone area.The clinch is done at the crown of the head.

bushido_man96 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 By saying that the clinch is done at the crown of the head, you mean that it does not go around the neck, correct? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
